Chapter 232
This was supposed to be her, Brandon, and Mellisa. This was the kind of family she had wanted to have with Brandon but then Lucas ruined it, she thought angrily.
“Lisa, Lisa are you with me?” Lucas jolted her out of her thoughts and she smiled and turned to him.
“Yeah,” she muttered.
Meanwhile, after Hannah and Brandon were done cooking, with the help of the kids, they arranged the food on the food on the table.
“Wow,” the kids muttered at once. They felt so proud of what they’ve done. They looked so happy, extremely happy.
Hannah then turned to the maid who was standing behind her and asked her to call everyone downstairs for dinner.
“What about grandma?” Jayden asked.
“She left for some work, she would be back late” Hannah said in response.
Hannah and Brandon helped the kids sit on their chairs and served them. Just then Lucas and Lisa walked towards the table and sat on it.
The kids stared at Lisa, wondering who she was but as they saw her with Lucas, they thought maybe she was his girlfriend.
It wasn’t long before Jessica and Matthew came and joined them at the dining.
The moment Jessica sat down she raised her head and saw Lisa. There was this look of surprise on her face the moment she saw her.
“What are you doing here?” She asked Lisa, and she smiled at her.
“Hello, Jessica, it’s been a while,” Lisa said with a smirk on her face and Jessica scoffed.
“Jessica, please, let’s just have a peaceful dinner,” Lucas said and she glared at Lucas and then at Brandon and Hannah and the octuplets who were busy eating their food already.
She didn’t want to cause any drama in front of the kids, so she had to keep calm.
Lisa rolled her eyes as she tasted the food. The food tasted nice.
“Hmmm, the food is so spicy” she yelled as she quickly picked up the server and spit out the food in her mouth.
Everyone raised their heads and stared at her.
“The food tastes nice, though,” Matthew said and Lisa shot him a deadly glare wondering who he was.
“Yeah, it does. I think Lisa should work on her taste buds so she can have good taste” Jessica said and everyone chuckled.
She gritted her teeth and stared at Jessica and then at Hannah who was smiling and eating. She felt a surge of anger rushes through her.
She wasn’t gonna let Jessica ruin her mood, not today.
“So, Hannah, when did you and Brandon meet again? And how come his kids are so grown up when I checked last year, he was still single with no wife or kids. Or did you give him another man, kids?” Lisa said and everyone raised their heads and stared at her.
“There are children here, Lisa,” Lucas muttered and she rolled her eyes.
“Not everyone is like you, Lisa” Jessica responded and Lisa sighed as she tightened her fist.
The kids stared at Hannah who had this angry look on her face, she was trying to hold herself from saying any word to Lisa in front of the kids. She took a deep breath and continued eating.
Even though they didn’t know the woman or what was going on, what they noticed was that this lady was trying to get on their mommy’s nerves.
The kids then stared at each other.
“Aunt Jessica, my aunty in school said we look so much like our daddy,” Allison said with a smile on her face.
“Of course honey, even a blind man could see it,” Jessica said and the kids burst into laughter.
Both Brandon and Hannah stared at each other. Brandon knew the kids were trying to protect Hannah.
They wouldn’t sit and watch anyone say mean words to Hannah.
“Uhm, sweethearts, you guys should go to your room,” Hannah said with a smile on her face, and the kids pouted. They were already done eating, they were just eating fruits.
“Mommy and I will come and play with you guys. Just go to your room and we will be there in a jiffy” Brandon said and the kids nodded before standing up and going upstairs to their room.
Lisa stared at the kids till they were out of sight: they seem to be so smart, I’m going to deal with all of you, she thought and then quickly replaced the look on her face with a smile.
“Your kids are Cute. So, how does it feel like giving birth to octuplets at once, Hannah?” Lisa asked and Hannah smiled at her.
“It feels really good being a mother to my octuplets, they are my world,” Hannah said and Lisa smiled.
“I felt that way once when I had my daughter but unfortunately she was kidnapped and killed,” Lisa said and everyone went silent but Hannah spoke.
“I’m sorry about that,” Hannah said and Lisa smiled.
“Oh, it’s nothing. Seeing how Brandon is with the octuplets reminds me of how he was a good father to Mellisa.
I remember the night Mellisa had woken up crying, I tried to stop her from crying but she just wouldn’t stop crying but when Brandon carried her, she immediately stopped crying. Brandon, how did you stop her from crying that night?” Lisa asked.
“I had to make her lay on my bare chest and she stopped crying and fell asleep,” Brandon said and Hannah stared at him and looked away.
“Yeah, I remembered that day, you weren’t putting on any clothes because we just finished having sex,” Lisa said with a smile on her face and Hannah stared at Lucas who had this look on his face.
Whatever Lisa was saying, she thought she was trying to hurt Hannah, not knowing she was also hurting Lucas.
“Have you got no shame? You are so disgusting. ” Jessica muttered angrily as she stared at her.
“That’s nice, and I’m sorry for the loss of your child. My condolences. Brandon is a good father. He cooks at times, takes the kids to school, makes sure they are okay, and also makes time for them even with his busy schedule. Only a good father does that, isn’t it?” Hannah said in reply and Lisa nodded in response.NôvelDrama.Org content.
“Yeah, of course” Lisa muttered and then frowned as she took a glass of water on the table and drank from it. She seems tough.
Just then Lucas, who was angry, stood up and left.
Jessica also stood up.
“I wonder who invited you over, go back to wherever you crawled out from and leave my family alone, bitch” Jessica said as she stood up and walked away leaving Lisa, Brandon, and Hannah all alone.
Hannah sighed softly.
“So, Lisa, when would you be leaving?” Hannah asked.
“Leaving, who said anything about leaving? I’m here to stay,” she said and Brandon and Hannah gazed at each other.
